Geometric Event-Based Quantum Mechanics

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
We propose a special relativistic framework for quantum mechanics. It is based on introducing a Hilbert space for events. Events are taken as primitive notions (as customary in relativity), whereas quantum systems (e.g. fields and particles) are emergent

Geometrical formulation of relativistic mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The relativistic Lagrangian in presence of potentials was formulated directly from the metric, with the classical Lagrangian shown embedded within it.

Quasi-relativistic description of a quantum particle moving through one-dimensional piecewise constant potentials

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2020
Using a novel quasi-relativistic wave equation, which can give precise results up to energies ~mc2, exact quantum mechanical solutions are found which corresponds to a particle with mass moving through one-dimensional piecewise constant potentials.

Non-inertial quantum clock frames lead to non-Hermitian dynamics

open access: yesCommunications Physics, 2022
Relativistic theories brought the operational notion of time to the center stage of physics. Here, the authors show that effective unitary dynamics is not guaranteed if this notion is extended to quantum mechanics when relativistic corrections are ...

Relativistic Statistical Mechanics vs. Relativistic Thermodynamics

open access: yesEntropy, 2011
Based on a covariant theory of equilibrium Thermodynamics, a Statistical Relativistic Mechanics is developed for the non-interacting case. Relativistic Thermodynamics and Jüttner Relativistic Distribution Function in a moving frame are obtained by using ...

Comparative Analysis of Jüttner’s Calculation of the Energy of a Relativistic Ideal Gas and Implications for Accelerator Physics and Cosmology

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
Jüttner used the conventional theory of relativistic statistical mechanics to calculate the energy of a relativistic ideal gas in 1911. An alternative derivation of the energy of a relativistic ideal gas was published by Horwitz, Schieve and Piron in ...

Newtonian versus special-relativistic statistical predictions for low-speed scattering. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The statistical predictions of Newtonian and special-relativistic mechanics, which are calculated from an initially Gaussian ensemble of trajectories, are compared for a low-speed scattering system.

Breakdown of agreement between non-relativistic and relativistic quantum dynamical predictions in the non-relativistic regime

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2019
To study quantum dynamics in the non-relativistic regime, the standard practice is to use non-relativistic quantum mechanics, instead of the relativistic theory, because it is thought the approximate non-relativistic result is always close to the ...

Magnetic moment of the ρ meson in instant-form relativistic quantum mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We derive an explicit analytical expression for the magnetic dipole moment of the rho meson, mu_rho, in a relativistic constituent-quark model. We adopt our relativistic approach to composite systems, modified instant-form (mIF) Relativistic Quantum ...

On the Collision of Relativistic Shock Waves and the Large Scale Structure of the Universe

open access: yesUniverse, 2020
The solution to the problem of symmetric collision of two relativistic shock waves is given and limiting cases are investigated: Newtonian mechanics and ultrarelativistic mechanics. The results are correlated with the presence of known superclusters and "
